longest month ever

I'm so glad February is here. I thought January would never end. It just seemed to drag on and on and on. I guess that's normal - the letdown after everything that goes on during Christmas and New Years, the dreary weather (we've actually had more rain than snow - yuk), nursing a couple sick/recovering kittens (they were both spayed on the same day) and we had a couple personal not-so-happy moments during the month that made it even worse. But with all the bad things that have happened recently, we have been able to do some fun things too - the concert mentioned a couple posts ago, my first ever youth group retreat (pretty sad when you're the "leader"), the Super Bowl party and enjoying the Patriots' loss, and baking a Barbie cake for my aunt's birthday.

The representatives from Greene Valley PCA at the Pittsburgh Presbytery Senior High Snow Camp in Ligonier, PA.

The cone-heads.

My homemade Super Bowl cookies. This is the 3rd year I've had to make Patriots helmets since I started doing this in 2004, I'm so sick of it.

We got to watch the big game through the lens of a projector on Andrew's living room wall. It was so awesome, unlike this photo. The picture was perfectly clear and did I mention huge?! I think it was about 8' x 10'. If you look very closely, you can see me to the right of the "screen", the players were bigger than life-size.

Thanks for the update, Jen. I've been thinking about you... Hope February is better than January was! Here I'm holding down the fort -- Currie's had the flu since Sat. morning. He has only left the house once since then to see the doctor. I'm hoping and praying I don't get it next!:)A

Who am I?

Born & raised in western Pennsylvania, I now live in central Oklahoma. I am a daughter of the King, wife to Bobby, church planter wife at City Pres (PCA), real estate agent, and zookeeper of our three pets (Paisley, Shadow, and Little Girl.) What I am not, is a mother yet, and no, that is not by choice, unfortunately.
